    ABOUT PENGUIN CAFE

    Penguin Cafe was founded by Arthur Jeffes in 2009, bringing together a talented and disparate group of musicians from the likes of Suede, Gorillaz and Razorlight, initially to perform his father Simon Jeffes’ legacy of world renowned Penguin Cafe Orchestra music, ten years after his untimely death in 1997.

    “For this album I wanted to effect a departure from where we’d been up to now. The idea was to create a musical world that would feel familiar to an audience more used to dance records but stay true to our own values. So we replaced electronic layers with real instruments: pads with real string sections, synths with heavily- effected pianos, and atmospheric analogue drones with real feedback loops ringing through a stone and a piano soundboard.” – Arthur Jeffes.

    Penguins at the moment include in no particular order and not always at the same time: Arthur Jeffers, Andy Waterworth, Neil Codling, Darren Berry, Cass Browne, Emma Smith, Vincent Greene, Rebecca Waterworth, Tom Chichester, Clark Clementine Brown, Peter Radcliffe, Oli Langford, Sarah Wilson, Des Murphy, Lucy Shaw, Kath Mann.
